Email, texting, and videoconferencing are popular and convenient ways to communicate. However, text messages sent via standard SMS/Apple iMessage, and emails sent via popular email services are not encrypted or secured. This means a third party may be able to intercept or access the information and read it since it was transmitted in an unsecured and unencrypted manner. In addition, most popular forms of videoconference do not utilize secured lines of communication. This means that a third party may be able to intercept or access the transmission or information. HIPPA guidelines state that if a patient has been made aware of the risks of unencrypted electronic communications, and that same patient provides consent to receive health information via electronic communication, then a health entity may send that patient personal medical information via unencrypted electronic means. In light of the above information and advisory related to unsecured and unencrypted electronic communication, please review the following and sign the options you prefer: Allow Unencrypted Email- I understand that emails are not confidential methods of communication and may be insecure.
